I actually went to high school and college went him....dude can flat out ball...he developed his game alot since high school...he is a scoring machine that cant be stopped...there were many teams that was throwing triple teams on him and he stil found out a way to score...he also is 4th leading scorer in the nation, a good rebounder (second on the team), and a good stealer (3rd in the nation)...he is the real deal...His first NCAA game he hit 35 on Memphis wit ease...I was there when he got his quadruple double against central baptist...To be honest he wasnt aware that he made history cause he is so humble....Who ever pick him will get a true steal of the draft

Only thing close to a vid i found was him dunking one against memphis this year.

This cat has me intrigued, he kinda sounds a lot like Ragon Rondo but with a better shooting stroke and strength. Dude had a Quadruple Double game of (25pts 12rbs 10ast 10 stls), 8 double doubles and 11 30pt games in the same year. The Quadruple double is the ONLY one in NCAA D1 history.
A smart coach once said, "Potential just means you're not good enough yet." Playing on potential is like living on air: It's essential, but if thats all you have, you're eventually going to starve.

I like him for the Nets second rounder as well but he'll probably be taken by Portland at 36 if not higher .

He is a very good scorer and has great range on his jumper. He can play out of control at times, but given the fact that he basically carried his team, his lack of control at times is understandable. I am trying to remember what else I saw on the tape I watched (3 games I think). It's not coming to me right now. Will have to look back at my notes.

Lester Hudson has not played organized basketball that long- this explains why his play is erratic at times. He has good range on his shot and can dribble, but he tends to dominate the ball. The problem is his lack of system oriented play- he is the do-it-all player at a small university. Sure, I believe that he has the drive to be molded into a nice backup combo/point guard off of the bench. Still, his game is catered to a workout setting because he is physically a very gifted player. Any problems that might arise would come into play during the season, where he may need to familiarize himself with different offensive schemes. I see this as the issue, but I do not believe this can be learned in workouts.
